Olive Kilifi (born September 28, 1986) is an American rugby union player, who plays prop for the United States national rugby union team and for Sacramento Express.

Kilifi attended Tyee High School in Seatac, Washington.[1] Kilifi debuted for the U.S. national team during the end of year tests in November 2013, earning two substitute appearances. Kilifi started in both of the March 2014 qualifying matches against Uruguay for the 2015 World Cup, and was at the time considered one of the U.S. team's best scrummagers.[2][3]

In early 2016, Kilifi signed for the Sacramento Express of the newly-formed PRO Rugby competition.
